Fell in love with a toilet seat

[MossRoad]

Anyone else read while they're on the throne? My family always did, wife thinks it's weird.

Yep. A page or two of the National Geographic every day. Been doing that since I was a kid. Why? Because I had a bunch of siblings and that's the only place that was quiet.

We've just got a $1.99 LED nightlight in the bathroom. Does the job.

We have them as well on the 3rd floor. Funny enough, for whatever reason, my father hates them and his way is to use the very small flashlight I gave him if he wakes up in the night. He's 91, and set in his ways.

That said, if I'm going to spend that kind of money on a toilet seat, kind of stupid not to use that feature isn't it? Personally, I like it. Light doesn't come on until you hit the bathroom area, and instead of giving you dimming light around the toilet, it gives you light IN the toilet so if your standing, less chance of missing your target because the target is lighted LOL, particularly for my dad whose aim isn't what it once was

I like the ones with slow closing lids and seats.

Yeah, and you get used to them. Nearly every time I use the bathroom somewhere else, I end up dropping the lid and making a lot of noise. I'm working on that though.

Had to laugh. I'm 78 and haven't "hit the target" in 5 years. Ha

How does your septic tank like it?

On this subject, the plumbers installed two decent toilets in my house, but it seems the ‘chair height’ setters is the standard these days. They sit 2-3 inches higher than the older style ones. Nice in ways but not so if you have sciatica issues. I had mine swapped out for a shorter one.

Or you are very short with feet dangling like a kid in a handicap stall. I can‘t see many women liking them.

My wife goes to the Loo with her cell phone, and tuned into Market Place ... three purchases later (uggh ) she finishes her business.

Never more than 90 seconds to a minute. Once a day, typically just after breakfast. One and done. I do take in a lot of fiber including supplements and so evacuation is complete.

My squatty potty must be on back order.
